King's Coronation concert viewers ask 'Where's Prince Louis?' as young royal absent

King's coronation viewers have been left asking 'where's Prince Louis?' as he is noticeably absent from tonight's concert celebrations.

The Prince and Princess of Wales, alongside their two eldest children Prince George and Princess Charlotte, have been spotted at Windsor Castle as the concert gets underway.

One Twitter user said: "Where’s Prince Louis?!? He’s the most entertaining out of the lot of them!"

Another said: "No sign of Prince Louis tonight or his antics!"

"Gutted Prince Louis isn't going to be causing chaos at the Coronation Concert," another user said.

One woman commented: "Prince Louis is probably at home saying, 'Result!, I wasn't allowed to go.'"

And another person added: "I’m thinking this concert would have been better with Prince Louis."

One man took to Twitter to say: "Where’s Prince Louis? In bed? Get him up for a late night, it’s bank holiday tomorrow That’ll make this worth watching."

It comes after Prince Louis stole the show yesterday with his many facial expressions, although he did 'disappear' for a short while during the ceremony.

But the reason why he was not seen watching the Coronation service was to do with his young age, as the young prince was 'retired' during the service - a move which was planned in advance.

At one point on the Buckingham Palace balcony, he stole the show completely as he banged his fists during the Red Arrows flypast.

He also stole the hearts of royal super fans with his slow clapping and his shock when the jets flew over the top of the Mall in Central London.

The newly-crowned King and Queen will be joined by around 20,000 members of the public at tonight's concert, which is being hosted by Downton Abbey legend Hugh Bonneville.

The show features performances by Lionel Richie, Take That, Paloma Faith, Olly Murs and Katy Perry - who made headlines yesterday when she struggled to find her seat.

Also on the line up is veteran rock guitarist Steve Winwood and Nicole Scherzinger.

London singer Zak Abel has been drafted in last minute to replace Freya Ridings, who was forced to pull out last minute over a 'mystery' illness.

Earlier this afternoon, Prince William and Kate Middleton arrived at Windsor to take part in an unplanned walkabout, where they met with royal supporters in the hours leading up to the concert.

Videos captured the sweet moment the Princess of Wales hugged a young fan, who became overwhelmed after meeting her.

Prince William will make a speech tonight at the concert, which is expected to attract an audience of millions of Brits.

The Coronation Concert is being broadcast on BBC One, BBC iPlayer, BBC Radio 2 and BBC Sounds today from 8pm.
